I cant remember my loads but it was something like 43 or 43 grains of 2208. Anyway I ended up with circles on by brass due to removed ejector so it does not have to be a hot load to do it.

43 of 2208 would be merely dribbling out the end of the barrel, I reckon 2930 would be a bit hotter than that.
Not with the rather tight Archer barrels that were for sale at the time, that was the speed.

Velocity & pressure do not always go hand in hand. Some barrels will develop pressure at lower velocities. If you have brass flow into the ejector hole, plunger in or out, you have pressure, or soft brass!!!
